About Me

Welcome to Created to Learn!
We were created to learn through circumstances, through the Word of God, through books, through marriage and children. The love of learning is a God-given desire I hope to teach my two young girls along with a love of books. Travel along with us, a new-to-homeschooling family, as we explore the world around us through books. If you have suggestions on books or tools that would benefit my family, please contact me. I would be glad to review them.

I Heard It through the Grapevine Challenge

Where do you find new books to read? Do you get recommendations from friends? From the library? From the person next to you on the plane or train or bus? From other book blogs?The goal of this challenge is to read 3 new-to-you books between May 1 and November 30 that have been recommended to you. Feel free to read more if you want! Any type of book is OK. It can even be a book by an author you’ve read before. Cross-overs with other challenges are fine, and you can change books at any time. And there will be a prize at the end of the challenge. You will need to sign up before June 1.

All I had to do was look at my Amazon Wishlist to find books others have recommended. Here are my choices:

Fun, can't wait to hear what you think of some of those! You know, I do the same thing, put them in a wish list at Amazon - but, I never put a note as to where I saw them! So I'm not doing this challenge b/c I can't remember where I saw what book reviewed or mentioned :)

Yay, I'm glad you're joining in! You know, I thought that book Jenny talked about looked good too, looking forward to hearing what you think. Since Lynne said we could change books if we wanted I've thought about using it for one of mine.
